From Barnes & NobleDoug is a robot who wants to know more. It's true that every morning he downloads oodles of information about the city, but something inside him inexplicably makes him yearn to experience the city himself, so one day he carefully unplugs himself and wanders into a realm that even Google had not prepared him. A picture perfect picture book about the real world up close. Editor's recommendation.

His illustration style can roughly be described as Art Deco meets Mad Men: fedoras, solid shapes, bold lines. But Yaccarino isn't trendy or simplistic. He's especially good at slipping in the small, nourishing details that are savored upon repeated readings…[Doug Unplugged is] a sweet tale, and true to the anti-technology, analog strain that runs through much of Yaccarino's work.
